La La Land - A musical, magical and beautiful movie

  

 "A Musical Masterpiece" - Peter Bradshaw, THE GUARDIAN

"This season's most dazzling movie experience" - Joe McGovern, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

One of the best and most beautiful movies ever made: La La Land. 

According to IMDB, La La Land is a tale of  'Sebastian and Mia [who] are drawn together by their common desire to do what they love. But as success mounts, they are faced with decisions that begin to fray the fragile fabric of their love affair, and the dreams they worked so hard to maintain in each other threaten to rip them apart.'

And again, don't take it for a musical. It's so much more than that.

This is a movie made for the people who truly understand and love cinema; with possibly the best cinematography I have ever seen in my life. Emma Stone is amazing in the role of Mia. It has many moments of love, affection, dedication, commitment, dreams and aspirations. Two people united by the drive to make it big in the entertainment industry meet, fall in love and get embroiled in a dilemma to choose between love and career.

It's a musical. It's magical. It's powerful, it's intense and it's very very exciting. 

The music: you can never ever get enough of that, which shouldn't be surprising since it's a musical. Music and a great storyline combined with brilliant acting and probably the best cinematography I've ever seen. Here's La La Land for you.

Cinematography: Couldn't be better 11/10

Spoiler Alert!

This movie takes us through a magical ride from people who dream and then suddenly hits reality. The ending maybe a little bit of something to worry the audience and make this movie less satisfying for them; however, it was something believable. It shows the ''reality-hit'' so perfectly that you hate but appreciate it at the same time. So many movies have tried to showcase it and have failed miserably.

................................

For me, none of the 'Great Movies' lists are complete without this extraordinary piece of art.
